(Official City, State and Coun‘y Newspaper) HEARTS THAT RESPOND Not long ago the newspapers printed a brief story about @ little boy in the middle west who is confined to his bed by a puzzling malady, and whose only fun comes from reading postcards sent him by friends. Shortly thereafter the little chap began to be flooded by @ new stream of cards and letters sent in by widely- separated newspaper readers. People living all the way from Maine to California took the time to sit down and write to the lad. Similarly, it isn’t so long since a newspaper story about & little slum girl who kidnaped a baby because she didn’t have any dolls to play with brought letters from a num- ber of people, offering to buy the little girl the best doll that could be found. It's the easiest thing in the world to touch the heart strings of people with a story of misfortune or loneli- ness. There is an enormous fund of human kindness The “Bismarck 71 Tribune Bismarck Tribune Company, Bis- and entered at the postoffice at Bismarck THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1929 to stand in the middie of the sidewalks to engage in con- versation, utterly disregarding the fact that the stream of travel has to wind around them. The time may come when the convenience of the public will call for traffic “cops” for pedestrians as well as for wheeled’ traffic, A SERVICE OF ADVERTISING As the market place of the community, the adyértising columns of the newspaper do save time for the. shopper; |. they do lower prices to the ultimate consumer; they: do insure more business and more income for the merchant.’ Yet, significant as these ‘services are, newspaper advertis- ing yields even greater values which, while ultimately social in their outcome, are founded upon - firm eco- nomic basis. For example, if America has become a nation of home- owners, it is due in large measure to the persistence with which the desire for homé-ownership has been. stimulated through newspaper advertising. It was but: afew years. that the real estate business moved slowly along in a succession of individual and uncrowded transactions, un- til dealers awakened to the possibility of making: their offerings known simultaneously to multitudes. In the old days before the real estate business dis- covered its most powerful ally, newspaper advertising, the only methods of attracting prospects were “For Sale” signs on the property and a real estate agent’s shingle over the office door. Properties were ori: view to only. the limited number who passed hy. Business picked up as soon as it occurred to the real- tors to go after newspaper readers. If people cannot read they can get someone to read the real estate ads for them. So newspaper advertising is selling more real estate than is sold by real estate agents. It is the com- mon ground upon which buyer, seller and middleman meet. So, aside from contributing materially to the develop- ment of this important business activity, the newspaper has likewise given impetus to one of the great stabilizing. influences in American social life—home Wada batt A FISHERMEN’S SCHOOL The “down east” fisherman is popularly: supposed to know all there is to know about. his own particular call= ing, and sending such a person to a school to learn scientific fishery practices sounds a good deal like a Joke.

It’s not hard to reach. Ask for it and you'll get it. Why is it, then, that so much loneliness and suffering go unrelieved? Why do so many people go about yearn- ing for a bit of sympathy or unexpected friendliness and forever failing to get it? Simply because they're afraid to reach out for it. Most of us start out in life with pretty trusting, cons : fiding natures. We expect the best from everybody— ‘nd, unfortunately, we get let down rather hard pretty often. The experience isn’t pleasant; rebuffs hurt. So ‘we adopt a sort of protective armor of reticence, and Tesolve to let the other fellow make the first overture. We'll not risk hurting ourselves again. ‘ . The result is that we get reserved and cold. We make * cdntacts with people but we fail to make the ‘most of them. We go through life in isolation—like a starving man who goes groping in a fog past half a dozen soup kitchens without knowing that they're there. All around ;.

Puel-oil is a residue left. after valuable products have been distilled from crude petroleum, and, as its name implies, a competitor of coal. By applying heat and high pressure to this fuel-oil in special ways—a process called “cracking”—an excellent synthetic gasoline is ob- tained. : “ This discovery was another triumph of research—one fade in an industry which has only lately displayed an interest in the development of new processes with ‘chemical acid. This awakening promises new and cheap- er fuels. “Cracking,” in five short years, has profoundly affected The entire oil industry.

Sometimes one gets annoyed at this continuous blithe assumption that all our women, and the most of them, have nothing to do but sit down and figure out whether they'll wear orchid fingernails to go with a purple tout ensemble, ér orange ones to startle the brown. Now that we're on this subject, the Department of Commerce issues fig- ures which say that in 1927 American women spent nearly two billion dol- lars on beauty—$1,825,000,000 to be exact! Another billion and a half dollars were spent for female wearing: ap- parel in the year of the last avail- able statistics on this subject, which happened to be in 1925.

Not pessimistic—merely truthful. We do have hundreds and thousands of beautifully groomed women in this country, but we also have hundreds of thousands of those whose days manage to be rather peacefully lived in checked calico and not in tout ensembles. oy BARBS | ° Dr. Will Durant says there is more difference between man and man than between woman and woman. ‘We were just wondering if the same were true about differences, Just to keep you informed, Secre- tary Kellogg, author of the interna- tional pact outlawing war, also gave the ruling that Charley Curtis’ sister must sit below the wives of ambassa- dors and ministers at official dinners.

THE CIRCUS By ALICE JUDSON PEALE The circus was made for children. The silly clowns, the fabulous ani- mals, the fantastic freaks, the beau- tiful, clever horses, the incredible feats of human skill and courage, all seem calculated to captivate the child’s imagination, in one glamorous experience. Therefore, it sounds like rank mis- anthropy to suggest that all chil- dren do not enjoy the circus and that, until they are out of the kinder- garten, none should be taken there. No child less than six years old should ever attend a three-ring circus, It is too much for him. The multi- plicity of simultaneous events is in itself. enough’ to exhaust “him ner- vously. The noise, the confusion, the crowds are bound to pfoduce an un- wholesome degree of fatigue, while seven-year-olds whom we invite are of the type that really will have a good time. “There are more Christians who believe in the cruiser bill than there are who believe in the anti-war pact.” —Rev.
